    Audiobook Sunshine ElementarySunshine Elementary: Book One

    Written by Nina Saporta

    Publisher’s Synopsis: Sunshine Elementary is a refreshingly positive and progressive chapter book series that focuses on kindness, social skills, emotional intelligence, inclusivity, and engineering. Loved by 1st through 6th graders and beyond!

    What happens when a kind engineer, a cool surfer, a witty comedian, and a sensitive friend get introduced with a CRASH on the first day of school? Follow Hanny, Wilder, Winnie, and Jonah as they journey through the first day at their brand new school by the shore. At Sunshine Elementary, the students create their own class rules, define who they are, navigate situations with kindness, and solve problems using creativity and engineering skills. This positive, heartwarming, and influential story will inspire readers and ignite the idea that we all have it in us to change the world.

    Ages 7-10 | Publisher: Kids Are Kind Publishing | December 3, 2019 | ISBN-13: 978-1733885904

      I love books that teach children self confidence and the “I can do it” attitude .
